Well, we’re probably working on that with the SM-3. They took out a satellite with it so hitting a mid course ICBM shouldn’t be too hard.

I wish it weren’t so. Kindness is often just a choice.

Yup. We’re conditioned to tip everyone

Oh good we finally trained them enough. Can we please get rid of captcha now have the next portion?

I mean… That still works. In Iraq the US Army routinely ran bait ambushes in areas AQ was known to operate. Oh look a single vehicle and they’re waving beer bottles around. That’s not a trap at all… Meanwhile there’s an entire infantry platoon traveling dark and silent just out of the light behind them.

HEMA is not combat. It’s tournament fighting. In combat you’ve got a thousand spearmen on either side looking to stick you with a sharp stick wherever they can.

Biden is done. There’s no comparison with Trump anymore.

Yes. They’re currently engaged in massive war crimes, including the use of starvation as a weapon as identified by the US State Department. They are absolutely ineligible for military aid.

But they aren’t actually defenseless. They still have the most sophisticated military in the region.

That’s a hilarious assumption when we’ve done this with everything up to and including 2,000 pound dumb bombs in the last year.

That would make their version of parliament roughly half Palestinian. More if the right of return was generally enforced. (Just allowing them to move back into the country) So the resulting country would actually be pretty fair to them as long as the apartheid part really is gotten rid of.

Just do anything as long as you don’t have to be inconvenienced. Got it.

Point of order, they didn’t block the road. They were up on the sign poles. The police stopped traffic.

Horizon Zero Dawn did a really good study on the ego of a tech billionaire.

Nah, nationalize his shit right out from under him, draft his executives and explain to them the terms Chain of Command and UCMJ. That’s the kind of thing billionaires are actually afraid of.
